To make it worth our while we're trying to set up prospect visits. But there's a problem...
We have a limited prospect list, and even among our list we don't know who might be attending. Marketing is a new concept at this company - so there are no opt in mailing lists, no company news letters, no real communication with the press...
How can we turn a free "expo pass" into a marketing event for us? And does anyone have tips on how to ease the process of setting up prospect meetings around such an event?
We're thinking of broadcasting to our prospects with an email/phone offer to meet around the event (e.g., day before or day after) and to provide some token thank-you offer of a discount or free cool gadget. With luck we'd hit some folks that would actually attend.
Unfortunately, this idea would probably not even motivate *me* to take me up on the offer.
Anyone out there have experience with something like this? Or even just suggestions?
